Scope and Content

The file contains a letter (dated to 30 April 1935 in Bern) addressed to a certain Mr. Halff who seems to be a secretary in the organization "Alliance Israelite Universelle" in Paris. The unknown sender of this letter tried to contact the recipient by phone without success – that's why he decided to write a letter. Three weeks ago Lydia Schischmaroff (also known as Princess Golitzine) was arrested on the basis of being accused of fraud on cocaine-trafficking. It turned out that this woman was in fact Leslie Fry, an anti-Semitic author working together with the defendants on the case of the Protocols of the wise man of Zion. The writer of the letter states that it is of great importance to reveal the true identity of the arrested woman to the judge and reminds Mr. Halff that this urgent matter calls for discretion.
